Marriage celebrants in North Melbourne

Articulate, approachable and charismatic, Andrew brings a natural, relaxed and fun vibe to ceremonies …. big or small … public or private …. and ensures that there will be as many laughs and smiles as there are moving moments.

When he’s not working, you’ll probably catch Andrew on a golf course, working at his fitness, training elite AFL athletes, or just “hanging” with his wife and family.

With a professional corporate background as well, this is a guy that you will connect with …  even if you are a “blokey bloke” … and who will ensure you and your guests remember your ceremony for all the right reasons.

More specifically, Andrew conducts ceremonies respecting that they are serious and important occasion, but his popularity as a celebrant is in recognition that he writes and delivers a uniquely personal ceremony for each and every couple perfectly reflecting their personalities and preferences.

Andrew loves really getting to know his couples … and that ensures that he keeps it “real” ….. he will tell your story the way you want it told …. you definitely won’t get fluffy talk from him like “love is watching the sun rise together” …. and his aim is to make your ceremony “the best ever seen” in the eyes of your guests … an experience that will set the scene for a great party to follow!

And if you’re not sold yet …. Andrew is a very experienced celebrant with over 1100 ceremonies under his belt, he has been profiled in major bridal magazines, and for eight years has been awarded the honour of being recognised as Victoria’s best male celebrant by the Australian Bridal Industry Academy!

I’m Benn Stone the finest purveyor of modern, fun and people orientated ceremonies on planet earth.

Being a full-time celebrant and performing hundreds of weddings per year, I have built my career around rave reviews, structure and offering immense value – so don’t forget to check out my pricing page on my site.

My focus is to create ceremonies that are fun, relaxed, light hearted or all the above with a touch of class and romance. Delivered in my fun, warm hearted and energetic way, it’s bound to get some giggles, a few “aww moments” but most of all nana and second cousin approval!

I offer a tailored range of ceremonies from the simplest paperwork only, a short and sweet or a completely hand-written celebration for you both.

Having received a lot of compliments and reviews about my calm and relaxed manner and killer hair, I can say I’m at least 9 ¾ /10 awesome! (according to every couple ever!)

If in doubt, give me a ring and spend a couple of minutes having a chat. No obligation. I want you to choose the celebrant that’s right for you.

My name is Sharon, and I am an Australian Government-authorized Marriage Celebrant based in Melbourne.

I am truly passionate about what I do, and I can confidently say that I will help create the wedding ceremony you envision, because your needs and wishes will always be my top priority.

Marriage registration in Australia is quite different from the process in China. As many people know, couples in China can simply visit the Civil Affairs Bureau, complete the necessary paperwork, and receive their marriage certificate on the same day.

In Australia, however, couples must lodge a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) at least one month before the wedding ceremony, and no more than 18 months in advance. This can be done either through an authorized Marriage Celebrant or through the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages.

Registering your marriage through a Marriage Celebrant carries the same legal validity as registering directly with the government. However, when you register through us, you have far greater flexibility in choosing the time and location of your ceremony. We also provide Chinese-language marriage registration services and bilingual wedding ceremonies (English & Chinese), ensuring that both you and your guests can fully enjoy and understand every special moment of your celebration.

The Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) is a formal declaration of your intention to marry. Once the NOIM has been lodged, you may choose your preferred date, time, and venue for a legally valid wedding ceremony when working with a Marriage Celebrant. Government registry ceremonies typically offer limited flexibility, and even if you submit your NOIM more than one month in advance, there is no guarantee that your preferred date will be available.

After the NOIM is submitted, there is a mandatory one-month waiting period before the wedding ceremony can legally take place. The ceremony cannot be conducted during this waiting period.

If the marriage has not taken place within 18 months of lodging the NOIM, the notice will automatically expire. If either party, or both parties, decide not to proceed with the marriage, they may notify the Marriage Celebrant at any time to cancel the NOIM. Please refer to the official registration guidelines for further details.

“Hand in hand, growing old together.”

We look forward to helping you begin this wonderful journey and making your special day both memorable and meaningful.

我是Sharon，是经澳洲政府婚姻部门授权，位于墨尔本的民事婚姻监礼人，证婚人(MARRIAGE CELEBRANT MELBOURNE)，可提供中文，英文双语主持。

我非常热衷于我现在所做的事情，而且可以肯定的是，我会帮你制定你想要的仪式，因为我将会把您的需求和愿望放在第一位！

其次，在澳洲注册结婚和在中国很不同。大家都知道，在中国结婚注册就是双方去民政局办理手续，当天就能拿到结婚证了。但是在澳洲，要结婚需要在婚礼前的至少一个月，或18个月以内通知我们的婚姻注册官Marriage Celebrant 或者到政府的Registry of Birth, Deaths and Marriages 部门填写好婚前意向书 Notice of Intended Marriage （NOIM）。

在政府那里登记结婚和在我们这里登记结婚注册都是一样有法律效应的。然而在我们这里登记，你们有更多的时间和地点上的选择，在政府那里登记是没有的。并且我们提供中文结婚注册服务(CHINESE MARRIAGE CELEBRANT SERVICE)。

NOIM 的含义就是来申报一下有结婚的这个意向，在我们这里登记结婚，双方可以选择自定时间和地点来举行法律上有效的婚礼仪式，在政府那里登记结婚只有时间上的选择，其他的都没有选择，而且要至少提前一个月以上交表也不一定能排到你想要的好日子。填完NOIM以后，双方需要等待一个月的冷静期结束后才能举行婚礼，冷静期内是不能举行婚礼仪式的。 如果填写完NOIM的18个月以后还没有举行婚礼，NOIM就会自动作废。如果单方或者双方改变结婚的意向，可以随时通知注册官来作废NOIM。详见注册指南。

执子之手，与子偕老！希望我们能够帮到你们！

**Multi-award winning celebrant**

Enjoy a fully personalised ceremony like no other.
The most common response to my ceremonies from guests & other wedding providers is:

“I’ve never been to anything like this.” or “I’m just the plus one and I’ve never cried & laughed so hard at a wedding”

No poems or lyrics. All the readings are uniquely written about you and you only.

By expressing your love that you don’t know how to voice.
I interview you two and your closest loved ones.
And create a ceremony so personal & magical it will be memorable for sure.

If you have furkids and children you want to be involved, please note that I LOVE working with them! My attention to detail to look after them and all loved ones is like no other.
Where bridal party stands – I’ll gently guide them.
When to hold hands, when to look where – I’ve got you.
Making sure furkids look good in the photo – my specialty ‘butt swivel’.
Have a family/close friend with special needs – I got you = sensory space, no eye contact, plan B & C.

Congratulations on your engagement!

I look forward to making your wedding day one of the happiest days of your lives.

Warmest regards

Helen Abbott

I believe that every couple has the right to a unique and beautiful wedding ceremony that is a true reflection and celebration of their journey together. Your wedding ceremony is about sharing your love and commitment with family and friends.

I love to work with couples in a collaborative approach as you decide how you wish to share your ceremony with those that you love.

I am happy to provide celebrant services interstate.

Please contact me to arrange your obligation free meeting to discuss your ceremony.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Memories are special.

Everyone has a story and Julie loves to hear them and then craft a ceremony that reflects who you are and what you want. Great ceremony = special memory.

Ceremonies can be brief with just the legal bits, or everything you dreamed of – the fairy tale.  Or they can be a surprise for all your guests – ask me about that one!

I would love to have a chat, with no obligation of course.

While I live in Eltham I am willing to travel to give you the best ceremony possible.

I also provide funeral services, name giving’s and any other occasions that warrant a celebration.

As your Melbourne Wedding Celebrant it is my absolute privilege to be entrusted with creating a beautiful ceremony for what is, for many people, the most important life milestone they’ve celebrated so far. I feel very lucky and touched that so many couples have put this responsibility in my hands, and I work hard to ensure that the ceremony I design for them is a reflection of who they are, both as individuals and as a couple. It’s very rare these days to see the kind of raw emotion that we see at weddings, and I love it when my couples and their guests laugh and cry their way through my ceremonies!

The couples I work with are all different ages, genders, shapes and sizes, but the one thing they have in common is that they all value their wedding ceremony as the beginning of their marriage. They want to celebrate this important transitional event with their families and friends through a ceremony that is uniquely theirs. If that sounds like you, please read on!

I provide you with a comprehensive ceremony builder booklet with lots of ideas and samples for things you might want to include in your ceremony. I’m completely open to whatever traditional or whacky ideas you would like to incorporate, and I am good enough that I can manage anything you throw at me. I am above all organised and efficient, so you don’t have to worry about chasing me up or reminding me to book your rehearsal – I’m all over it!

I’m highly likely to be just as excited (if not more so at times!) as you are about your wedding day. However, as much as I love to have fun on the day, I am also across every little detail. I want you to be able to enjoy your ceremony and relax completely knowing that I have it all in hand.

I have an immense passion for the performing arts and all pop culture, and would be delighted to incorporate quotes, readings, music or snippets from films, music, shows, or TV into your ceremony if you wish!

So if you’re looking for an award-winning, vivacious, professional Marriage Celebrant, or information about my Marriage Celebrant Fees please get in touch with me today!

MELBOURNE BASED authorised Marriage Celebrant and
Sister Act 2 aficionado. 
By day you’ll find me in the world of arts and entertainment with my classical music marketing hat on. I’ve worked for some of Melbourne’s biggest cultural institutions, and spending my days surrounded by music makes getting out of bed pretty exciting!
But when I’m not immersed in the world of a Mahler Symphony (his Ninth is my all-time favourite by the way), you’ll find me right here… in the land of marriages.
Becoming a Marriage Celebrant was not on my bingo card, but when two of my dearest friends got engaged and asked me to marry them (perhaps not in those exact words), I jumped at the opportunity. The thought of being able to play a part in their special day made my heart sing, and now, here we are.

I have a warm and friendly approach, and I am dedicated to helping couples create the perfect ceremony for their special day. Whether you are after a traditional ceremony, something simple or more unique, I am here to work with you and make your day one to remember. I work with you to create your ceremony that suits you and as personal as it can be. It can be a simple ceremony or more comprehensive.

Your wedding ceremony is the difference between a wedding and a party – it’s the big event of your special day, where the magical moment happens. So it should be unique, fun and fabulous and reflect you as a couple – the last thing you want is for it to be dull and boring!

While ensuring your marriage ceremony fulfils the legal requirements, Susie will work with you to create your ideal event. You’ll then be able to relax and enjoy your special day, knowing that the ceremony will flow seamlessly and be delivered as per your wishes.

Susie’s extensive experience working as a Communications Manager enables her to assist you in articulating your unique story and sharing it with just the right amount of creative flair.

With her additional experience as a Presenter, MC and Fitness Instructor, Susie will then deliver your ceremony in a warm and engaging manner.

I live in Melbourne; however, I like to travel and I am qualified to perform a wedding ceremony in any State in Australia. You won’t be charged for the travel – just accommodation!

I love to make a ceremony all about the couple. I’ll help with the planning and do my utmost to make the day an exceptional one for the couple, as well as friends and family.

Contact me for a chat. You don’t have to decide immediately.
